Structured_descriptionAutomated_descriptionPredicted to enable carboxylic ester hydrolase activity and lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in lipid homeostasis and phosphatidic acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in lipid droplet and mitochondrion. Expressed in hypodermis. Used to study Chanarin-Dorfman syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Chanarin-Dorfman syndrome; autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis 1; and colon adenocarcinoma. Is an ortholog of human ABHD4 (abhydrolase domain containing 4, N-acyl phospholipase B) and ABHD5 (abhydrolase domain containing 5, lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Disease_relevanceMutations in human ABHD5 (Chanarin-Dorfman Syndrome (Neutral liped storage disease) is a rare metabolic disease caused by a failure in lipid breakdown and abnormal lipid accumulation in tissues and organs; this condition is characterized by dry, scaly skin (ichthyosis), other characteristics include an enlarged liver (hepatomegaly), clouding of the lens of the eyes (cataracts), and mild intellectual disability; ABHD5 functions as a coactivator of adipocyte triglyceride lipase (ATGL); in C. elegans reducing the levels of one of the orthologs of ABHD5, cgi-58, enhances the survival of AMPK (AMP-activated kinase) deficient dauer larvae; cgi-58 physically interacts with ATGL-1 in vivo and affects it''s localization on lipid droplets, cgi-58 also affects lipid droplet size; cgi-58 also prevents lipid droplet fusion independently of ATGL, indicating it has ATGL-1 independent cellular functions; this function is conserved in higher animals as well, as demonstrated in CGI-58-deficient mouse embryonic fibroblasts, suggesting that CGI-58 may play an evolutionarily conserved role in restricting lipid droplet encounters and coalescence across species.Homo sapiensPaper_evidenceWBPaper00046951

RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
